The Last Emperor has inked a distribution deal with New York City based Raptivism and will finally drop his much anticipated, still untitled debut album.We have seen various types of contracts, but never in the form provided by Raptivism giving him creative freedom. The Last Emperor, through his label [Red Planet Music Corp.] distributed by Raptivism, will finally have his moment—-to release the official—long awaited debut LP,” said Que, Last Emperor’s brother and partner in Red Planet.The album is scheduled for a July release and will feature production by The Beatminerz, Ayatollah, Set Free, Big Tyke and Prince Paul. Raptivism recently inked a deal with Neil Levine’s Penalty Associated Labels (P.A.L.). P.A.L. also inked recently inked a deal with Ice-T’s Final Level Entertainment imprint.”I’m extremely pleased to hear about Raptivism’s signing of The Last Emperor. This is the perfect artist-label fit; a cutting edge record company who has their ear to the streets with one of the dopest lyricists to come around in a long while. Big things are in-store for Raptivism,” said Levine. “Last Emperor is one of the premier lyricists of our time. It is only right that he offers his debut through Raptivism where content comes first,” said Raptivism founder Vincent Merry.
